Description

The Motion to Consolidate form is a legal document used to merge two or more related court cases into one hearing. This form allows parties, typically defendants, to request that the court combines their cases when they share common questions of law or fact, thus avoiding duplicative trials. Key features include sections for outlining the rationale for consolidation, such as reducing expenses and preventing delays. Filling out the form requires clear identification of the involved cases and providing an overview of the shared issues. Furthermore, it includes a notice of motion indicating when the motion will be presented in court and a certificate of service to confirm that relevant parties have been informed. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and associates who manage organized litigation practices, as well as paralegals and legal assistants who facilitate document preparation. It promotes judicial efficiency and can significantly aid in workload management by minimizing trial-related costs.

FAQ

Code of Civil Procedure Section 1048(a) authorizes consolidation ?when actions involving a common question of law or fact are pending before the court, it may order a joint hearing or trial of any or all the matters in issue in the actions; it may order all the actions consolidated and it may make such orders ...

Consolidation must be sought through the filing of a written motion that states the reasons for requesting consolidation. Such motion should include a cover page labeled ?MOTION FOR CONSOLIDATION? and comply with the deadlines and requirements for filing.

A Motion to Consolidate is a request to combine the assets and liabilities of two or more debtors, which is in contrast to a Motion for Joint Administration which merely seeks to procedurally administer two or more cases together.

Rule 4.03 (FRCP 42) Motions to Consolidate. A party desiring the consolidation of related cases shall file a motion in the case bearing the lowest cause number. The movant shall file in each related case a notice of the motion, to which a copy of the motion shall be attached.

In a consolidation for trial, ?the pleadings, verdicts, findings and judgments are kept separate; the actions are simply tried together for the sake of convenience and judicial economy.? (See Sanchez v. Superior Court, (1988) 203 Cal. App. 3d 1391, 1396).
